The first generation of the iPhone was not released in September. Three cold facts about Apple
01 The original iPhone was not released in the fall
Nowadays, everyone defaults to the launch of new iPhones at the September autumn conference every year, but you must know that the first generation iPhone was not released in September and autumn, but on January 9, 2007, and June 29, 2007. On sale, and the first three generations were not released in autumn. The second and third generations were released in June.

02 iPhone 9 that doesn’t exist
I don’t know if you have noticed that after the iPhone 8, you jumped directly to the iPhone X, which is what you call the iPhone 10, because X is exactly 10 in Roman numerals, and there are rumors that Apple did this because Apple founder Steve Jobs himself Hate the number 9, so it’s hard to see the number 9 in Apple’s product line. In fact, the main reason why Apple named the ninth-generation iPhone iPhone X is because the iPhone X is the first full-name screen iPhone in the history of the iPhone. At the same time, when the iPhone X was released, it happened to be the tenth anniversary of the iPhone’s launch. Taiwan’s landmark mobile phone pays more attention to its naming, and it is named iPhone X, which is of commemorative significance.

03 iPhone mobile phone date up to January 2, 2038 4:00
Believe me, even if your iPhone is the latest iPhone 13 Pro Max, your calendar can be set to 4:00 on January 2, 2038 at most. It was rumored before that this is because the base system of the underlying system (the system is recorded and saved by 32-bit integers), so that the date can only be up to 4:00 on January 2, 2038, which is a bit like the “Millennium Bug”. Actually, I think it’s just a date limit set by the system developers. If you are interested, you can go to the iPhone settings to turn off the automatic time, adjust the time to 4:00 on January 2, 2038, the phone will automatically enter night mode, and your screen will automatically dim. Other Android mobile phones are the same, but the time and date are slightly different. If you are interested, you can go home and try the mobile phone in your hand.
